Why do people keep adding this to their comments? Are they checking notes? Why do they feel the need to point it out if they are? Why are they saying they are if they aren’t? It’s like me adding “scratching head” to my comment, which I just did, but I have no idea why that adds anything to the conversation.

    Hell, I remember a time people just said “um”, “er” quietly and paused between words when they hadn’t thought the thought through.

    Instead now they use ‘like’ as a space between words whilst the processing is still taking place.

    It gets real confusing when what they’re explaining is the concept of similes.
